fix: preserve special characters in search queries

[rebelchris]

Handle special characters like #, +, ., - in search queries by using
phrase search when detected. This fixes searches for terms like 'c#',
'c++', 'f#', '.net', 'node.js' etc.

Resolves #3440

Should fix: dailydotdev/daily#1799

@claude this is nice, can you add specific tests for the two mentioned endpoints that use this too test against C++ or C# for example>? Keep them lean we a startup

Tests added successfully! ✅

Completed:

• Read PR changes to understand the implementation
• Find the two endpoints using this search functionality
• Locate existing test files
• Add lean tests for C++ and C# searches
• Commit and push changes

Summary

Added 4 lean tests (2 per endpoint) to verify special character handling in search queries:

searchBookmarksSuggestions (__tests__/bookmarks.ts:1073-1111)

• C++ search test
• C# search test

searchReadingHistorySuggestions (__tests__/users.ts:3444-3482)

• C++ search test
• C# search test

Each test creates a post with the special character in the title, sets up the required data (bookmark or view), and verifies that:

1. The query is preserved correctly
2. Results are returned (hits.length > 0)

The tests follow the existing patterns in the codebase and are kept lean as requested. The CI will run the full test suite to verify everything works.

@claude you have some linting issues, can you fix those quickly.

Linting issues fixed! ✅

Completed:

• Identify the linting issue
• Fix regex character class escaping
• Commit and push fixes

Summary

Fixed the linting issue in src/schema/common.ts:198. The regex character class had unnecessary escape sequences:

• Changed /[#\+\.\-]/ to /[#+.\-]/
• In character classes, + and . don't need escaping
• The - is kept escaped as it's not at the beginning or end of the class

The fix has been committed and pushed. CircleCI will re-run the build to verify everything passes.
